The AMBIKA IV maintains the fundamental beauty of the AMBIKA III, but with a richer, fuller body to the sound. During research and development stages 100% of the endorsers who were using the AMBIKA III have switched to the IV, which is a great testament. As our darkest model we are pleased to make it even more 'lovely & beautiful' sounding!
We made changes to the 'standard' large-chamber, which has evolved into our Large-Stadium-Chamber™. The new Large Stadium Chamber design gets its name from its shape, which is reminiscent of a Football Stadium. This allows an even bigger bottom end, and a fuller sound at the same time.
The indented lines you see on the baffle, are thepatented Shark Gill Baffle™. It works on the physics principle of 'boundary layer effect', similar to the dimples on a golf ball. In a mouthpiece, the airstream is pulled closer to the floor and side walls. This allows one to 'fill' the mouthpiece more with air, resulting in increased dynamics.
The Hard Rubber AMBIKA uses real vintage style hard rubber just like the vintage mouthpieces of the 1940s-50s, and its new thin body allows the premium hard rubber to fully resonate, giving quite a fantastic sound. Now you can hear the full magic in this type of hard rubber. If you like the vintage sound, you will love the AMBIKA.
